Would you stay in a job with lower pay but a good office and vibe instead of taking higher paying job with a worse vibe? Could you leverage the offer to get more pay?

Depends on the difference.

Yes, I would definitely stay at a good office with a nice vibe versus a worse vibe. You spend a lot of your waking hours at work, it should be a place that you want to go to.

Why not just ask for a raise?

I would personally solve for work life balance over a certain pay threshold

Get a competing offer and then have them match or beat. Or just have a conversation now if you think you deserve it but prepare a 1 pager with your ask and justifications.

So embarrassed. I literally had one job to do today which was to schedule a client and give and take her paperwork when she came in. Totally called her by the wrong name today AND gave her the wrong paperwork. She was really nice about it but I feel like my boss was disappointed and I'm disappointed in myself. I don't want her to think I won't be able to keep clients straight when I start doing supervised sessions.

I have my annual review coming up and want to hear thoughts on what a reasonable raise expectation is. I report to the COO and currently make $94k + up to 10% annual bonus based on company hitting their revenue goal + I have 3000 stock options. I have 3 YOE in customer success but pivoted to a non technical program manager role at a series c tech startup last September. I have been getting consistently positive feedback at quarterly reviews. What raise should I aim for?

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
